Here’s the statement from the exhibition company that owns the theater where the murders took place:
Cinemark is deeply saddened about this tragic incident. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families and loved ones, our employees, and the Aurora community. We are grateful for the quick and professional reaction of all local law enforcement and emergency responders. Cinemark is working closely with the Aurora Police Department and local law enforcement.


Cinemark has a policy of no guns.
Colorado allows firearms unless the property prohibits it.
The shooter used the cinemark policy to his advantage, knowing that there would be no one to fight back.
I have looked at this policy and have always questioned it.
Only the honest citizen is going to follow this policy, the crook is going to break the law, be it carry a gun or sneak into the place, or both and shoot everyone.
Although it is not common at all for me to carry, from now on I will pay more attention to the no gun notices, and perhaps not go there.
